Conditional Comments in IE »

Very rarely do I think that IE is a good browser. But I have to give them a tip of the hat for their conditional comments. This feature saved my butt, by allowing a construct something like this one:

      <!--[if IE]>
        <p>Welcome to Internet Explorer.</p>
      <![endif]-->

Any browser other than IE simply ignores the useless comment. Meanwhile, IE steams full speed ahead and uses the enclosed information. Sweet.
